you’re not boring but thats bc i get a kick out of calling you “nads” and you havent told me not to, yet.
im also perpetually 8 years old.
i really, really like pointing out the logic fail of someone elses argument. sure, it doesnt count as a real argument for me, but it makes me feel better when i do it, and even better when its in public.
i still hope i never really disagree with you about something.
I came to see your amazing workouts, but I got caught up in all this food talk. It’s making me hungry! Anyway, more to the point, like the rest of the PW world, I’m coveting your pull-up ability, and nice work overall! Best of luck with your case.
Nikki: Thanks for the support. You’re a sweetie.
Masch: You’re right. An 8 day training cycle just extends the training cycle past the typical 7 day week. Mine looks like this: T-MP; F-Sqt; Sun-Bench; Tues-DL; Fri-MP ect. I feel like a slouch. But, I’m trying to train smarter so I can keep training. Nursing this hip sucks.
Kimba: Thanks for the pep talk. Sometimes the crap the state puts out really gets to me. We could never win like that. And it hurts to lose to it.
Cbear: Nads is cool. I like it. It makes me think of testicles. I enjoy arguing too. But, when there is more than your ego at stake there is more pressure. My client is in prison for 300 months. And everyone in that courtroom, but me, is trying to keep him there. It’s a four (3 judge panel + 1AG) against me intellectual fight. But not today. Today the judges were on my side. I made the points I needed to make. And then I got to watch the court hammer the state’s attorney with them. It felt really good.
Thanks Lanels:

Training today= hip rehab shit. Not worth writing about. I’m going to try to run tomorrow. I miss it.
glad to hear things went well at work. yoghurt is a health food… but i’m fond of the extra creamy yoghurt that is pretty high in fat. meh. tastes delicious. hope your hip feels better soon and you have a good run.
Heh heh, nads mean balls to me too.
Good luck with the run and hope your hip holds up.
Trying to catch up. Sounds like you’re making the right call about your hip. Hope the run goes well. You must be a beast of an attorney.
Training smarter, not harder FTW!
Keep it up on those pullups so that we all can be jealous and insanely motivated to try to best you… which I probably never will, but fun to try!
Not quite 5 miles. Hip started to complain. So I walked the last bit home. But, I’m feeling pretty good right now. I think I’m ready to add the running back in. And I’m excited. Btw the deload and this week where I feel like I did nothing, I’m ready to start training hard again.
Handstands and press handstand work.
Glad the hip isn’t too bad. Don’t push it too hard too soon, though. I know you don’t need me to tell you that but I also know the temptation of returning after injury too soon.
And moar gymnastics vids please!
Oh no not another lawyer/gymnast/power lifter/mother/I’m sure I missed something …boring. lol 
It’s good to see the hip is feeling better.
I’m with you in the love of the junk food, but I’m trying the no gluten thing (T-Nation article)right now.
I would also like to add my vote for gymnastic vids or handstand stuff. 
Deload mission accomplished.
Congrats on your good day at the podium. They are rare and must be properly savored.

x2. i wish they weren’t so rare for yous.
Cal: I’m trying to take it easy. I think my hip flexor injury is completely healed, but now I have a touch of sciatica. Thou shall not shuffle. Injury begets injury.
Charlie: NO gluten? Damn. That sounds tough. I’m having a hard time with my limited ban on junk food. Change is not easy.
Thanks kimba.
Cbear: You’re smart and fierce. You should consider a career in public defense; I think you would be well suited to it. And we need people like you.

Bench
I benched today, got a pr, I can’t find my fucking log book. My house is a mess. It’s dinner time. And I’m hungry. Will finish post later.
i really appreciate the compliment.
a) i hate the public.
b) i really, REALLY hate the public.
c) i have a temper. i like that about me.
d) i’ll already be serving the public in my chosen career and maybe school for your version will happen later in my life, i’m not ruling it out. im gonna take at least a lil break after i get this degree.

I find it very relaxing to watch your handstand videos. Mesmerizing.
Yay for the bench PR? A little rest certainly didn’t hurt you on those. What is a TKE?

Love your work, love it 
cool handstands. making it a mission for this summer. I got the headstands down two summers ago… time to rock the handstands. It looks so funny when your leg is flopped over and you’re walking. LOVE IT! <3 nice work.
A bench PR is all I need to hear. Awesome job Nadia! Your bench is the most improving in all of PW.
yeah on the bnench PR!
and Kimba is right - there something very yoga zen beautiful about your movement.
